2months old baby need stimulation for soft stools after being constipated for5 days.why is that?

Baby constipation: My first question is about what you are feeding your two month old baby. Certainly a breast fed baby should not be constipated. Formula fed babies often do become constipated. Is your baby getting enough fluids? If you are nursing at all, I recommend you increase your nursing or pumping to increase your milk supply for your baby.
